| Abstract | This I-Corps project is based on the development of a robot for use in inspecting complex machinery, such as jet engines. The inspection robot market is rapidly expanding, driven by a growing need for efficient, accurate, and cost-effective inspection solutions in sectors such as aviation, manufacturing, oil and gas, infrastructure, and energy. These robots play a crucial role by detecting faults, corrosion, or structural issues that could lead to costly failures if left unchecked. However, trad |
